Gamers have total control with tons of options to reduce lag, stabilize ping and ensure local connections while playing console games. The menu has helpful pop-up screens to explain what each setting does. The router's range on 2.4GHz was impressive
Some of the gaming features don't work for PC games. Its top speed on 5GHz was a little slower than I've seen with other similar routers and there's no useful app
Netgear and NetDuma teamed up to create a gamer's delight inside a futuristic-looking router. The XR500's speed and range are more than enough for a medium-to-large home. The DumaOS interface has lots of customization options and helpful hints for even n...
Up to 2600Mbps data transfer speed, 4 external antennas offer great range, Powerful software features
Some games may not work when geo-filter enabled,
This router review is pretty much all positive, as there aren't any cons that you will face after purchasing the Nighthawk Pro XR500 from Netgear. It has dual band Wi-Fi offering up to 2600Mbps speed, and four external antennas for improved coverage and t...

The NETGEAR Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500 router costs $299.99 from authorized retailers, including Amazon.com and others listed here for customers in the USA, and £239.99 (inc. VAT) from equivalent sources in the UK ( Amazon, Scan ) as of the date this rev...

Low-latency design, Informative dashboard, Very good performance and range
Expensive, Big
The Netgear Nighthawk XR500 Pro Gaming Router is for those who take their online gaming seriously with a high-throughput, low-latency design. Faster than the Linksys WRT32X, the XR500 includes quality of service, double-width data channels and the ability...
What started off as a ‘free' upgrade to Charter Communications new 200 Mbps base Spectrum Internet service snowballed into this article. We didn't plan on updating our Netgear Nighthawk X6 (R8000) router from 2014, but it was no longer able to do what we...
